Enlightenment Now

This is THE most cringe thing i have ever read from a public figure. Explain your love for this guy, Veeky Forums.

Do we love him? I'm under the impression that most of the board thinks he's ridiculous.

This is Bill Gates' new favorite book

He seems to have fallen out of favor with most people here lately, I do really like some of his older books tho.

>Everything good that happened since the Enlightenment is a product of enlightenment thought and everything bad since then like communism and fascism was anti-enlightenment!!1

that's all this book literally is

He feel for the "Nietzsche the Nihilist" meme.

>Is Stinky Pinky Counter-Enlightenment now?
Basically yes

>more boring neo-liberal propaganda
the absolute state of american "intellectuals"

The second he realizes that Enlightenment is not synonymous with positivism he'll abandon it.

Ah John "Free Will Doesn't Exist And I'm Gonna Rely On Its Existence To Prove It Doesn't Exist" Gray. That cuck.

>Is Stinky Pinky Counter-Enlightenment now?
No. John Gray on the other hand...

I can't believe how cynically he's cashing in. Either that or he, a Harvard professor, actually believes the crack he's pushing. God help us.

>Either that or he, a Harvard professor, actually believes the crack he's pushing. God help us.

i heard this liberal apologist on NPR the other day, a disgusting bag of shit.

How can you not love Neetch after reading this desu?

American education is a joke for a while now.

John Gray has always been a beast

>and progress
What kind of progress, assman?

cuck

Pinker is one of the only people that keeps me (a little) humble.

Even though I know it isn't the best way to go through life, I pretty much think everyone is considerably dumber than me or, at most, as smart. I have never met anyone that I believe to be smarter.

Pinker, along with a few other great thinkers, sets the bar incredibly high. It keeps me grounded. I'm sure all the genius mathematicians are slightly smarter too but I don't engage with their abilities so I don't care.

Pinker is a kike so he engages in the typical kikery.
